Blight victim (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elm

'blight victim' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for elm that I've seen before include "Timber tree" , "Large tree" , "Tall shade tree" , "Kind of 19" , "Tree of the genus Ulmus" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
